Ingredients
- Choose your favorite nut and use the chart above to determine the quantity and soaking time.
Instructions
- Soak the seeds or nuts in pure filtered water to cover, for the above-mentioned times. Drain and rinse in a sieve under pure running water.
- Add the seeds and the requisite amount of water to your high-speed blender jar.
- Blend until smooth.
- Place a nut milk bag in a large bowl or pitcher. Pour the blended nut or seed milk into a fine mesh nut milk bag. Allow the liquid to drain completely.
- Pour into a clean, sterilized glass jar and place in the refrigerator until needed.
- NOTE: To make nut or seed ‘cream’, use 2 cups of soaked nuts or seeds per 3 cups of water in the blender.
- To make coconut cream, Refrigerate two 15-oz. cans unsweetened coconut milk overnight. Open cans and spoon out the thick coconut cream into a medium bowl. You should have around 1½ cups. (Reserve coconut milk for another use). Whisk until soft peaks form and the cream has doubled in volume, about 5 minutes. Powdered vanilla bean can be stirred in at this point.
